Inventor: TAPSON DANIEL WARREN
IPC: H04N7/081

Abstract: A data processing apparatus is operable to combine template signals into first
and second frequency bands of a data signal. By detecting an amount of relative
frequency change of the template signals recovered from each of the frequency bands,
an indication of an amount of distortion applied to the data signal can be determined.
Accordingly, there is disclosed a data processing apparatus for detecting distortion of a
data signal to which a template signal has been introduced into different frequency
bands of the signal. The apparatus comprises a frequency component processor
operable to generate data representative of the frequency components of the first and
the second frequency bands of the data signal, and a detection processor operable to
identify the distortion of the data signal in accordance with a relative frequency change
between the versions of the recovered template signal. 
     If the data signal is an image, the Wavelet transform can be used to transform
the image into the Wavelet domain. In the Wavelet domain, the template signal can be
introduced into the Wavelet bands. Correspondingly, the distortion to an image can be
identified from a relative change in frequency of the template signal between the
bands. The distortion can be interpreted as a transform applied to the image, such as
an Affine transform. By evaluating the transform parameters the distortion to the
image can be removed by applying an inverse transform according to the determined
transform.

Abstract: A system and method for accurately reconstructing an image
of a ROI (region of interest) within a long object by removing
components associated with data contamination. In one aspect, an
image reconstruction method comprises collecting a set of image
data along a spiral scan path of a ROI (region of interest)
portion of an object, identifying contaminated data within the
collected set of image data, the contaminated data corresponding
to image data associated with an object outside the ROI, and
reconstructing an image of the ROI using the set of image data
less the contaminated data.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for synchronous communication of frames of serial data is provided.
A framing pattern and data payloads are communicated over a first communication path. A clock signal
is communicated over a second communication path. The clock signal is synchronous to the data to
allow easy data recovery at the receiver. The framing pattern is communicated between each data
payload. The framing pattern has a length greater than the length of each data payload. The framing
pattern includes one or more bits of a first logic level followed contiguously by one or more bits of a
second logic level. Since the framing pattern is longer than each data payload, a data payload can never
contain sufficient information to mimic a framing pattern. A transmitter and a receiver are provided that
avoid the need for complex circuitry while readily identifying any communication path failures so as to
prevent propagation of erroneous data.

Abstract: Les séquences d'écho de gradient classiques, à temps d'écho relativement longs visualisent le flux complexe comme perte de signaux, dont le niveau et l'importance constituent un indicateur qualitatif de cardiopathie valvulaire. Comme le temps d'écho long empêche toute segmentation, l'imagerie en respiration retenue n'est pas possible et des acquisitions prennent de manière générale 2 minutes, les artefacts liés au mouvement respiratoire constituent fréquemment un problème. Dans la présente invention, une séquence segmentée est utilisée pour produire des degrés similaires de pertes de signaux à une séquence d'écho de gradient classique. La durée d'acquisition est néanmoins réduite et l'imagerie en respiration retenue est possible, ce qui supprime les phénomènes d'artefacts liés au mouvement respiratoire.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for controlling an electrical switching module which can be displaced between an  entry position  and an  exit position . Said switching module comprises switching contacts of vacuum switching tubes; an isolating element which can be also be displaced in the switching module and comprises isolating contacts which can be connected to, and disconnected from, corresponding mating contacts inside an enclosed switchboard section, as required; and connector contacts and mating connector contacts in the low voltage range. The switching contacts of the vacuum switching tubes support the closing and opening processes, under the control influence of a closing spring which can be influenced by a closing catch (EK) and an opening spring which can be influenced by an opening catch, and prominent functional positions of the isolating element are represented by an 'operating position' and by an  isolating position . Only the isolating contacts are disconnected from the mating contacts in a  test position  which is situated between the  operation position  and the  isolating position ; the connector contacts are also disconnected from the mating connector contacts in the  isolating position  of the isolating element; and when the switching module is switched from the  isolating position  to the  exit position , the closing spring and the opening spring are forced into an unstressed state. One such method is used to control displaceable switching modules in medium voltage switchboard sections.

Abstract: Une grande partie du coût d'une station de base dans un système radiocellulaire mobile provient de l'amplificateur de puissance. Ainsi, il est souhaitable de maximiser l'usage d'un amplificateur de puissance et, notamment, d'en obtenir la meilleure sortie de puissance ou d'améliorer son efficacité. De tels amplificateurs de puissance doivent, cependant, fonctionner dans des limites spectrales strictes, et ce type d'amplificateurs de puissance sont généralement surdéterminés de manière à assurer que les exigences spectrales soient atteintes. Le degré nécessaire de surspécification de l'amplificateur peut être réduit par mesure de la sortie de l'amplificateur et par détermination des facteurs de distorsions, puis par ajustage adaptatif des caractéristiques de fonctionnement de l'amplificateur, à coût réduit et en respectant l'environnement.

Abstract: This invention provides a heating and cooking
apparatus in which foods can be accommodated in a heating
chamber with good maneuverability and an appropriate finish

radiation through an opening provided on a wall surface
opposed to an opening part for taking in and out foods of a
heating chamber. The temperature detector detects the
temperature of a plurality of parts on a sealing means
(pan) having the substantially same electric wave
penetrability as that of the bottom surface of the heating
chamber. Accordingly, even when two foods are arranged
right and left irrespective of the size of the foods, the
temperature of both the foods can be detected. Then, the
user does not needs to extend a hand to the interior of the
heating chamber and arrange the foods in front and back
positions.

Abstract: The radio access network for allowing to construct a system
abundant in scalability in a W-CDMA mobile communication system.
A RNC in the radio access network is physically separated into
a C plane control equipment for controlling signaling and a U
plane control equipment for processing user data, where the user
data is transferred between a mobile terminal and a host device
via only the U plane control equipment and a control signal is
terminated by the U plane control equipment and the C plane control
equipment. This allows a system abundant in scalability to be
constructed, and even in the case of soft handover across the
C plane control equipments, also enables the continuous use of
the same U plane control equipment, thereby eliminating the
conventional connection path for connecting between RNCs and
preventing delay due to passing through the RNCs.
